Wow, Look How Big Michael Jackson's Kids Are Getting!

The late Michael Jackson was remembered with a hand and footprint ceremony at the Grauman's Chinese Theater in Hollywood yesterday. Representing for the late King of Pop? His three kids--Prince, Paris and Blanket Jackson. And my how they've grown!

Eldest Prince, 14, had on a black and red shirt touting the The Jackson's Victory Tour, Paris, 13, wore on a King of Pop shirt and young Blanket, 9, looked dapper in an argyle sweater. They helped transfer their father's handprint (from one of his glittery gloves) and footprint (from some of his famed dancing shoes) into cement that will be displayed outside the theater, a place Michael himself often visited while wearing elaborate disguises so he wasn't recognized.

The kids also hung out with the big stars in attendance, including Justin Bieber. Aspiring actress Paris, whose eyes are the coolest shade of green, actually introduced The Biebs, who sang, by gushing a little bit. "I want to introduce you all to a performer who also found stardom at a very young age, just like my dad," Paris said. "I knew my father would've wanted to be a mentor to someone like him and would be very proud that he came to today's celebration. We are all very big fans of him and his music--I know I am. So everyone please welcome Justin Bieber."

As I said before when Paris announced she's going to be starring in a movie, I find myself very surprised by the Jackson kids. Charmed, I guess. They had such an unconventional upbringing--always wearing masquerade masks or scarves and, of course, things like the balcony incident--and they seem pretty adjusted. Paris is so well spoken. I can't imagine having to get onstage and speak, let alone address an international audience, at 13. Prince seems nice and polite. Not sure about Blanket, who seems pretty shy when he's in the glare of the public eye, but then you see him looking comfortable and happy when close to one of his siblings (like this pic with Paris below). To me, they seem like some of the more "normal" Hollywood kids.
